In order to illustrate the differences in commuting behaviour, we decided to show some values in the form of a map with a breakdown by municipalities. The first map shows the average number of kilometers covered by a resident. It can be seen that in suburb municipalities of Copenhagen e.g. Brøndby, Glostrup, Ballerup and Lyngby-Taarbæk the average distance is around 4 kilometers and is higher than the total average (3.09). That can be caused by the fact that people decide to commute to the city with their bikes. The same pattern occurs in Syddjurs and Silkeborg where people may commute to Aarhus and in Faaborg-Midtfyn where people may commute to Odense. The clear outlier in that observation is the city of Aalborg and its suburbs where the average biking distance is significantly lower than in other urbanized areas.
Additionally we see that the suburban areas tend to have a lower mean age on the bike commuters compared to the national average of 36.95 years. This is very clear in municipalities such as Egedal, Allerød, Rudersdal, Skanderborg and Horsens. All within 20-30 kilometers of center Copenhagen/Aarhus and having traffic problems in the commuting hours, making biking a faster option. The areas far from larger cities have a much higher mean age. E.g. Odsherred (50.8), Langeland (45.4), Tønder (43.2) and Jammerbugt (42.4), since the bike rides primarily consist of leisure and shopping commutes rather than commutes for work or school.
